Chapter 43: Bluffing

Fang Lin was stunned and carefully checked Craftsman Fu's body, only to find that all the blood on this cunning guy's body belonged to others. He was not injured at all, but was very frightened. He said a few words of relief and suddenly felt Something felt very wrong. After thinking about it carefully, I immediately found the root cause:

"Wait...what did you call me just now, Lord?"

Craftsman Fu's face suddenly turned red, and he was frowning as he was about to speak, when Old Hu's unique style of laughter came from the distance:

"I knew you could do it."

Fang Lin's eyes were suddenly filled with a warm smile:

"I forgot that you can feel the location of the mission target, Mr. Zhao, otherwise I would have really planned to give you a surprise."

Mr. Zhao's injuries were very serious. Both legs were completely disabled. He was afraid that he would never be able to stand up and walk again in his life. But Fang Lin and Lao Hu didn't care about this at all. As long as the man didn't die before seeing Old Man He, everything would be safe.

Of course, in view of the rich rewards he had received after rescuing people in Dingjiazhuang, Fang Lin had no intention of saving people until death, but rescuing people must be done at the right time. Even if it means wasting the expensive medicine purchased from the nightmare space, it must be done at the right time. Use it on the edge ------- The key to that mission is not to have a healthy Dr. Zhao, but to have Old Man He accept his love!

Green, Huang Zhong and others also came to join them one after another. They all looked quite embarrassed. Just as Fang Lin expected, after being attacked, Cao Jun's camp immediately sent people to the camp by the river to ask for help.

After Green, Hu Huahao and the others intercepted four or five batches of messengers who were galloping for help, they were exhausted and finally missed two fish. The next thing was carried out strictly according to Fang Lin's plan. In order to maximize the Cao's army's offensive to protect the bridge along the river was delayed. It can be said that they did their best, and even support personnel such as craftsmen and Fu had to go deep behind enemy lines to undertake dangerous tasks such as arson.

"You all did a good job." Fang Lin smiled and said, "But I also did a good job."

As he spoke, he took out the fourteen ordinary keys and one golden key and placed them in front of him. Because Huang Zhong and other plot characters can't see this thing, Fang Lin doesn't have to avoid anything.

Faced with these precious treasures full of gambling chances, Green only glanced briefly, but Hu Huahao here unconsciously took a breath and cursed excitedly:

"Holy crap, are you going to Cao Jun's military camp or a bank? Is that a key store?"

Fang Lin smiled slightly and said casually:

"This is the very good reward mission I mentioned before! Otherwise, with the abnormal difficulty of the main line gold mission. After killing Li Dian, why do you need to specifically explain the 48 hours left for us? That is clearly left for us. To score points.”

"Let's go. The key can be opened slowly later," Fang Lin sighed lazily: "It's just me and Lao Lei. You can rest peacefully. Again, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, we have to go early Only by getting rid of this hot potato sooner can we truly feel at ease.”

The hot potato in Fang Lin's mouth was naturally the unconscious and dying Zhao Langzhong. As for the low and dilapidated city wall, I'm afraid it can't stop even ordinary people, let alone the monster-like Lao Hu - even if Lao Hu is carrying a person on his shoulders.

………….

That night, the fire in the barracks outside the city burned half the sky red. The screams of killing could be heard faintly. The county captain thought it was the Shu army that was attacking. He was so frightened that he dragged his family and his family away from the gap in the city wall overnight. The common people who didn't know the reason were even more panicked. Every house closed its doors. For fear of getting into trouble. The entire county fell into an extremely frightening silence. Fang Lin and the two men walked struttingly down the street carrying a half-dead man on their shoulders, but they didn't encounter even a single living person along the way!

Old Man He's original shop residence has been embezzled by profiteers, so he can only return to live in a dilapidated old house. It can really be described as a house with four walls. Of course the place is very remote. Fortunately, Fang Lin came once during the day. Even though it was a dark night, his abnormal memory could easily find the place.

After arriving at the door, Lin picked up the still unconscious Zhao Langzhong and reminded him:

"If I don't ask you to speak later, don't talk too much under any circumstances."

Then he motioned to Lao Hu to knock on the door. Hu Huahao only knew that what was in front of him was a double-layer thick iron security door in the real world. With a light tap, the two pitiful rotten wooden doors flew out in pieces. Lao Hu's eyes widened and he kept knocking on the door. Turning around, Fang Lin said with unusual innocence and pity:

"I...I really didn't mean it."

Fang Lin sighed and said:

"I know. If you did it on purpose, this house would collapse."

At this time, there were some noises in the darkness, and an old voice said weakly:

"There are seven cents left on the table and half a handful of rice in the jar. Take it and leave."

Fang Lin, Lao Hu: "...囧, we are not thieves..."

Fang Lin said in a rather urgent voice:

"Doctor He, come and save him quickly."

When the word "rescuing people" was mentioned, Old Man He coughed twice. He climbed up and lit the oil lamp. Seeing Fang Lin, he was slightly startled, and then looked at the bloodied Zhao Langzhong in Old Hu's arms. He slowly shook his head and said:

"He was injured too badly and his lips were deathly white. I'm afraid he can't be saved."

I don't know whether it was because the light was too dim or because Old He's eyes were dim, but the old man obviously did not recognize that the injured person was his disciple. Although he said so, he still asked them to put him on the temporary bunk piled with grain and hay next to him, and beat him. Bring a basin of water to wash his wounds. Medical ethics are indeed quite noble.

Fang Lin remained calm and pretended to be helping, but he sighed and complained:

"This man is a prisoner who was imprisoned in Cao Jun's barracks. We also rescued him easily. I thought I didn't care about this business, but I didn't expect that my brother has a bad face and the best heart. He insists that saving a life is better than saving someone's life. Building a seven-level pagoda, this act of kindness almost cost us both our lives here.”

Old Hu stood next to him with a straight face and held back his laughter. Ren Fanglin was slowly fooling him. Old Man He checked his pulse for a while, sighed and shook his head:

"It's hopeless. No need to waste your efforts. At most, we can hold on until dawn."

Fang Lin was using a wet wipe to wipe away the dirt and blood on Zhao Langzhong's face. After hearing this, he immediately threw his hands away and looked at Lao Hu and said angrily:

"Hey, I knew it was a waste of effort. It's all because of your good intentions, you idiot! You saved someone for nothing, and we didn't even get the hundreds of taels of gold! You carried this half-dead man into the city on the plains. , I have to carry this dead man out now! What a bad luck!"

Lao Hu, who had been scolded innocently, had his eyes wide open, shocked and angry. He was about to scold him back, but then he remembered Fang Lin's previous instructions, so he had to swallow his anger, lowered his head and remained silent. He really looked like a "good baby" who had been scolded. appearance!

As he spoke, Fang Lin picked up the half-dead Mr. Zhao on his back again, dropped ten big coins, cupped his hands to the old man He and said "Sorry for disturbing you," then walked out of the door cursing.

The two of them had walked less than ten steps, and Lao Hu had already caught up with him and whispered urgently:

"Are you stupid?"

Fang Lin smiled strangely and whispered:

"I have thrown a tattered prescription that Doctor Zhao was carrying on the ground, and the old man will chase it out soon."

Sure enough, after the two of them walked a few steps, they heard the rapid sound of footsteps behind them. It was Old Man He who stumbled out after him, grabbed Fang Lin, and implored with great excitement:

"Master, please go slowly and come into my room so I can take another look."

Although it was dark outside, Lao Hu saw at a glance that Old He was holding half a piece of torn paper in his hand. He probably recognized his apprentice's handwriting. For Old He, an old man without a wife and children, Dr. Zhao accepted part of him. The disciple of Yibo is almost like a son, and of course he is extremely caring.

Fang Lin said in astonishment:

"This man is not going to survive anyway, so we should take it out and bury him at night. Wouldn't it be a big trouble when others see him at dawn?"

Old Man He rushed out and was panting heavily. There was a sound in his throat for a long time. He was suffering from phlegm and asthma. He was speechless for a while. He was so anxious that he stamped his feet and just held on to Fang Lin. He was drowsy before and couldn't let go. Not left It was only when he saw that the handwriting on the half of the prescription that Fang Lin deliberately left on the ground seemed familiar that he realized that the half-dead patient was very similar to his only apprentice in body shape and appearance, and hurried out. Lao Hu quietly kicked Fang Lin hard, fearing that he would kill this old guy and lose his mission, he said loudly:

"Old man, maybe there is something important. If you move back, will you lose a piece of meat? I will move it. Even if I die, the bad luck will be bad for me!"

With that said, he took the doctor Zhao from Fang Lin and carried him back to the house.
